Activities and events

Wiki ▸ Activities and events

There is a near-constant buzz of organizing activity in New York City. In addition to the day-to-day hum of socializing, planning, and learning that happens among AnarchoTechNYC members, we also often organize recurring or one-off events. These include workshops, documentary screenings, and a bunch of other things you may not think of immediately! Some of these activities become traditions and are continued by multiple organizers.

Activities

Activities are things to do with your fellow antifa comrades that are happening on a(t least a semi-)regular basis at AnarchoTechNYC meetings/spaces. More details are available on a given event's wiki page.

• Capture The Flag (CTF) gaming - An irregular cybersecurity study group participating in online wargaming competitions.
• Mr. Robot's Netflix 'n' Hack - Let Mr. Robot teach you how to hack.

Events

Events are one-offs because they are either intended to be or just aren't happening regularly anymore. (You could always start doing these on a regular basis, if you want!)

• Digital fight training - Cybersecurity sparring sessions where we set up network perimeters and devices, and practice both breaching and hardening them.
• Ethics refactoring - analyze a feature/product for its "operative ethic" and then redesign the same feature/product for a different ethic
• Android forensics study group - learn how to detect whether an Android device has been cloned or tampered with
• Cyborg clinic - holistic (mental/physical/cybernetic) health practice sessions for anyone who wants to reclaim the time and energy in their lives from the digital devices demanding too much of it
